The second annual CRECHE collection from all over the world.
No way could I record the beauty of this event except to describe it as a spiritual treat with the lights, nativities, music, songs, non-members attendance (in awe) and how much we enjoyed it all. John was the greeter both nights and he loved it!
My two pictures are totally not indicative of the room full,
more like a mini-sampling.
The public was invited... they came... and the local newspaper called asking about it as we had placed an ad in the paper inviting folks to come share. It seems that their next years theme in a local publication is Nativity Scenes and they asked to come out and see our collection. They stayed over an hour, are excited about the prospects of next year (and you KNOW we are too).
Across the hall in RS room we served many different homemade cookies and hot spice cider!!
My personal favorite nativity!
Greeter and Wife ;)
We were surprised by several childhood friends of mine that came, some co-workers of John's brother Tom, and best of all.... Karen and Sky came with an entourage from New Growth Baptist, about 17 total in their group! We promised to attend their Christmas Program next week and bring the Warren's! (Oregon Sr Missionaries)
